Spice Up Fall Cooking

Body:

I used to be one of those people who thought that cooking healthy food was all about bland, boiled dishes. But that’s not so! By using spices and herbs instead of added sodium, extracted oils and refined sweeteners, healthy recipes can indeed be delicious. Learning to cook with natural flavors will open you up to a whole new world of food!

Fall, with its warm and hearty dishes, is a great time to experiment with herbs and spices. Most of our stores sell spices in our bulk section, so you can buy as much or as little as you like, which is especially convenient if you’re playing with new flavors.

Even a simple sprinkling of sage can really elevate a dish, but for extra wow factor, try a spice blend. Spice blends are easy ways to add worldly flavor to everything from beans to roasted vegetables, and make it so you won’t have “veggie fatigue”!
